Far Cry 4 – How Kyrat saw the light

Far Cry 4 is in the making and Ubisoft is trying their hardest to make it even better than its predecessor Far Cry 3. They recently released a behind the scenes video of how Kyrat (the fictional Himalayan region in Far Cry 4) saw the light! In order to design this in-game region, the developers ventured to Nepal, far away from tourist routes and monuments. Thanks to this journey, they were able to discover the local folklore and hear stories from the inhabitants there. Now, they are able to make the game even more dynamic and cultural.

In this first of three videos, the team talks about their motivations and expectations of going to Nepal and experiencing everything first-hand. Once there, they will face the harsh contrast between overly crowded, polluted cities and breathtaking abandoned landscapes. They also get to know the spiritual traditions and get to meet an experienced Gurkha (elite army units) who shares his heroic war tales with them! Far Cry 4 will be available on the 18th of November, 2014 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.
